Can Palestine become a prosperous and peaceful region? Munib al-Masri is the richest Palestinian in the world and he has a four-point plan to rebuild his homeland.
Click here to subscribe to The Economist on YouTube: http://econ.st/2ATg55H
This man is known as “The Godfather of Palestine'. He’s a self made billionaire. Munib al-Masri is the richest man in Palestine and also one of the most influential.
For more than 40 years he’s acted as mediator in Arab-Israeli peace talks. Now, at the age of 83, Mr Masri believes he has the formula to make his homeland prosper on the world stage. This is his four-point plan for peace and prosperity in Palestine.
Decades of conflict have taken their toll on this region, around a quarter of Palestinians live in poverty. Economic growth has been stifled by wide ranging restrictions imposed by Israel. But it’s also been hindered by infighting between rival Palestinian political parties, Fatah and Hamas.
Hope for unity came in October 2017, when Fatah and Hamas signed a peace deal. But such pacts in the past have collapsed. Now, Mr Masri wants the Israelis to decide if they can live in peace alongside Palestine.
Decades of peace talks have failed. Palestinians have also been criticised for their indecision. But the peace process is expected to start again when President Trump unveils a new plan in January 2018. While he’s waiting to see what the Israelis bring to the table, Mr Masri wants to improve the Palestinian’s quality of life.
People in Gaza live with severe water shortages and receive only a few hours of electricity per day. A recent UN report described conditions in Gaza as almost unliveable. Mr Masri is inviting foreign investment into Gaza and the West Bank, to rebuild infrastructure and boost the economy.
But to realise his dream of a flourishing, prosperous Palestine, Mr Masri has one final point in his plan. Changing Palestine’s image.
Decades of fighting have sapped the hopes and dreams of many Palestinians, meaning they fail to reach their full potential. With this four-point plan, Mr Masri hopes he’ll live to see Palestine back on its feet.

Since Israel started imposing a blockade on the Gaza Strip in 2007, there has been restricted access to the Palestinian territory by land, sea and air. It's one of the most densely populated places on earth, and the United Nations say more than half the 1.8 million who live there need humanitarian support.

The Trump administration has cut off all humanitarian aid to Palestinians in Gaza and the occupied West Bank. The UN is scrambling to make up for the loss, and has been forced to slash jobs, and cut school funding for thousands of Palestinians. Sarah Balter reports.
#Palestine #hunger #Gaza

Palestine

"Palestinian territories", or "occupied Palestinian territories", terms referring to the West Bank (including East Jerusalem) and the Gaza Strip which are occupied or otherwise under the control of Israel

Palestinian National Authority, also known as the Palestinian Authority, an interim self-government body established in 1994 to govern parts of the territories. Since 2013, the Palestinian National Authority is officially referred to as the State of Palestine by most international organisations.

Palestinian National Authority, also known as the Palestinian Authority, an interim self-government body established in 1994 to govern parts of the territories. Since 2013, the Palestinian National Authority is officially referred to as the State of Palestine by most international organisations.

The largest employer is the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, which employs more than 3,900. Another 1,600 work at two Wal-Mart distribution centers. Other significant employers include a thriving medical and healthcare sector that tends to the large population of retirees.

History

In 1846, the Texas Legislature created Palestine to serve as seat for the newly established Anderson County. James R. Fulton, Johnston Shelton and William Bigelow were hired by the first Anderson County commissioners to survey the surrounding land and lay out a town site, consisting of a central courthouse square and the surrounding 24 blocks. Antedating the town was a temporary trading post in operation since at least 1843. It grew significantly following the arrival of the railroad in the 1870s. It had a population of over 10,000 by 1898.

Energy (signal processing)

Relationship to energy in physics

Energy in this context is not, strictly speaking, the same as the conventional notion of energy in physics and the other sciences. The two concepts are, however, closely related, and it is possible to convert from one to the other:

For example, if x(t) represents the potential (in volts) of an electrical signal propagating across a transmission line, then Z would represent the characteristic impedance (in ohms) of the transmission line. The units of measure for the signal energy would appear as volt2·seconds, which is not dimensionally correct for energy in the sense of the physical sciences. After dividing by Z, however, the dimensions of E would become volt2·seconds per ohm, which is equivalent to joules, the SI unit for energy as defined in the physical sciences.

The track was released as the first single from the singer's debut in the United States on May 27, 2008. Although being released worldwide it initially only charted in New Zealand at number two and only managed to reach top thirty on the U.S. BillboardHot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Dance Club Play charts.

Generally well received by music critics, it was named sixty-first on The Top 144 Songs of 2008 listing by Blender magazine.

Background

"Energy" was written and produced by The Runaways. It was also recorded by The Runaways at Homesite 13 studios in Novato, California. and Hilson stated that she wanted to prove that she can be successful even without collaborations and guest vocalists and so it was announced "Energy" would be released as the next worldwide single following the success of "Knock You Down". The song was released on September 14, 2009 in the UK. On September 25, 2009 she appeared live on breakfast TV show GMTV in the UK where she performed the single. That same day, she appeared on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge where she performed a stripped version of "Energy" as well as a gospel cover version of "Supernova" originally sung by Mr Hudson and Kanye West.

Seven Year Itch (Collective Soul album)

On September 18, 2001, Collective Soul released their greatest hits compilation Seven Year Itch: Greatest Hits, 1994-2001 (stylized as 7even Year Itch). The compilation includes songs recorded from 1994 to 2001 and included two new tracks; "Next Homecoming" and "Energy". Seven Year Itch received decent reviews and was relatively successful It sold 225,000 copies in the first year after its release and reached number fifty on the Billboard 200; in Canada, it reached number nine on its albums chart and went platinum. All the songs in Seven Year Itch had charted in the US on the Billboard Hot 100, Mainstream Rock Tracks, or the Modern Rock Tracks chart, except for "Energy", which debuted in this compilation.

The compilation has sold over 500,000 copies. It saw a resurgence in sales after Collective Soul began putting out albums on their own independent label, El Music Group, beginning in 2004.

Seven Year Itch was the last album Collective Soul released through Atlantic Records and their last album to feature guitarist Ross Childress, who had been with the band since its 1993/1994 debut.

For more than 40 years he’s acted as mediator in Arab-Israeli peace talks. Now, at the age of 83, Mr Masri believes he has the formula to make his homeland prosper on the world stage. This is his four-point plan for peace and prosperity in Palestine.
Decades of conflict have taken their toll on this region, around a quarter of Palestinians live in poverty. Economic growth has been stifled by wide ranging restrictions imposed by Israel. But it’s also been hindered by infighting between rival Palestinian political parties, Fatah and Hamas.
Hope for unity came in October 2017, when Fatah and Hamas signed a peace deal. But such pacts in the past have collapsed. Now, Mr Masri wants the Israelis to decide if they can live in peace alongside Palestine.
Decades of peace talks have failed. Palestinians have also been criticised for their indecision. But the peace process is expected to start again when President Trump unveils a new plan in January 2018. While he’s waiting to see what the Israelis bring to the table, Mr Masri wants to improve the Palestinian’s quality of life.
People in Gaza live with severe water shortages and receive only a few hours of electricity per day. A recent UN report described conditions in Gaza as almost unliveable. Mr Masri is inviting foreign investment into Gaza and the West Bank, to rebuild infrastructure and boost the economy.
But to realise his dream of a flourishing, prosperous Palestine, Mr Masri has one final point in his plan. Changing Palestine’s image.
Decades of fighting have sapped the hopes and dreams of many Palestinians, meaning they fail to reach their full potential. With this four-point plan, Mr Masri hopes he’ll live to see Palestine back on its feet.
